This is the traditional time to wish friends a "Happy New Year," and we make such a wish for all SlU ihem Howiever, we would" be less than real­ istic if we expected any degree of fulfillment for the wish. The men who man the merchant ships have had a rough time of it during the past year and they will have just as bad a time in the year to come—^no one can deny this fact. It's not just the enemy bombs and torpedoes that we're talking about (though those are no small item, God knows), rather is it the home front offensive ag^ainst the rights and liv­ ing conditions of the men. Facing storms and loneliness and submarines is part of the modern seamen's job and he is doing it with unparalleled courage and fortitude. But he feels that his sacrifices at sea entitle him to a living wage, union security and the dignity of a freeborn man. He receives none of these without a continual and bitter battle with profit ma.d shipowners and power drunk Washington bureaucrats. While the seaman risks his very life in the prosecution of this war, the shipowner sits safely at home and schemes how to . break the unions and cut his payroll costs. And this situation isn't going to change in 1944—-it's going to get worse. So, we don't make an idle wish for a "Happy New Year," rather do we wish for all SIU men a New Year of courage and militancy and solidarity; courage to face the dangers they must, militancy in the face of their enemies at home, and solidarity with all union brothers in the building of a strong union which is the only guarantee of achieving a "Happy New Year" in the years to come.

Every member of the union should study the fol­ lowing text of Admiral Land's order. The WSA has announced that these regulations wiU go in­ to effect, irre.speptive of any ob­ jections to them by the various maritime unions. 1. In order to safeguard the health of crew's members and troops, and the safety and effici­ ency of the vessel itself, there shall be instituted the practice of requiring regular annual, as well as signing on medical examina­ tions and the basic immunization of all licensed and unlicensed personnel employed on aU Am­ erican, Honduran, and Panamian flag vessels owned by or under bareboat charter to the War Shipping Administration. 2. Nothing in this order is ap­ plicable to medical programs of shipping companies which al­ ready have such programs in op­ eration. This general order is applicable only to facilitie.s and programs of the United States Public Health Service and the War Shipping Administration which either are available or will be made available to carry out the purpose of this order. 3. In accordance with admin­ istrative order No. 51, these ex­ aminations shall be under the guidance and control of the med­ ical director of the War Shipping Administration, who shall be an officer of the United States Pub­ lic Health Service detailed for the purpose by the Surgeon-Gen­ eral of that service. The medical director will be represented in each port by a port medical rep­ resentative, who, at ports where the Public Health Service main­ tains a first of second class relief station, shall be the medical of­ ficer in charge of the Public Health Service relief station at that port. The port medical rep­ resentatives shall have supervis­ ory charge of these examinations in their respective ports. 4. The signing on examina-. tions are designed to discover cases of tuberculosis, veneral di-sease, commimicable and infec­ tious diseases, epilepsy, Insanity, and acute surgical conditions. Special immunizations shall be arranged for when vessels are proceeding into pestilence areas. Annual physical examinations, providing the basis of individual treatment and' cure, shall be in­ stituted as rapidly as facilities permit. 5. Experienced seamen shall not be disqualified for age or dis­ abilities due to age and occupa­ tional wear and tear. The pur­ pose of the program is protection to others and remedial action for those needing it. The hospital facilities of the United States Public Health Service and the rehabilitation program of the Federal Security Agency are al­ ready available for seamen re­ quiring such services. 6. Examinations .will be in­ stituted at each port where mari­ time activity justifies it on the effective date of this order, or as soon thereafter as po.ssible. Sup­ plements win be issued to this order for carrying out these ex­ aminations and immunizations and the procedures to be follow­ ed. 7. Standards for medical ex­ aminations shall "be set by the medical director of the War Ship­ ping Administration, under the requirements and with the ap­ proval of the United States Pub­ lic Health Service. 8. Each examinee, if he so de­ sires, shall be fully advised oral­ ly regarding the facts disclosed by his examination.
